CMO Apprentice — Careers at Eudai

Most marketing careers teach tactics. This one teaches how to think. An apprenticeship building the next generation of CMOs, alongside Paula Fontana.

Read a market and name what nobody has named yet.

Learn to find the category before it has a name, and the language that makes buyers feel understood.

Build a narrative that moves buyers.

Turn a complex, technical reality into a story that earns executive and board-level trust — and drives revenue.

Run integrated marketing for complex B2B.

Brand, web, demand, content, and field — how the pieces connect into a system that actually ships.

Be a growth partner, not a vendor.

Sit inside real strategy conversations and learn to operate as a peer to the people building the company — founders, operators, and security leaders.

Context in the category.

You already have some connection to risk, security, or resilience — through past work, study, or the communities you run in. You understand why this market is different, and that context is part of what you bring.

Genuinely coachable.

Not coachable on paper — coachable in practice. You take feedback fast and apply it faster.

At home in ambiguity.

You don\u2019t wait for a clean brief to start moving. You\u2019re comfortable figuring it out as you go.

A work ethic people notice.

The kind of effort that becomes part of how people describe you. Urgency without losing quality.

Clarity on the page.

You write well and think clearly. You can take something tangled and make it clear in a single paragraph.

Open roles

Three roles, built on the same premise.

Risk, resilience, and security companies have more technical excellence than commercial clarity. Closing that gap is judgment work, not task work — so these roles carry decisions, not queues. Senior, remote-first, accountable for the outcome.

Questions

Before you apply.

What roles is Eudai hiring for?

Eudai is hiring a CMO Apprentice, a Growth & Demand Lead, a Client Delivery & Studio Lead, and a Partnerships & Business Development Lead. All four are remote-first, full-time, and work on marketing for risk, resilience, and security companies.

Is Eudai remote?

Yes. Every role is remote-first and open to candidates in the US or Europe. There is no office requirement and no relocation.

What is a CMO Apprentice?

An apprenticeship that trains a marketing leader for this market by putting them inside live client engagements rather than a curriculum. The work covers category naming, narrative, integrated marketing, and operating as a peer to founders and executives.

Do I need a security or risk background to apply?

Not a formal one, but you need real context in risk, security, or resilience — through past work, study, or the communities you are part of. This market is different enough that context is part of what you bring.

How does the application process work?

One form, read by Paula rather than a recruiter. Send a link to your work and a few honest paragraphs instead of a formal cover letter. Genuine fits hear back within a week.

CMO Apprentice

Most marketing careers teach tactics. This one teaches how to think.

Eudai is building a bench of next-generation CMOs for risk, resilience, and security companies — the market that has more technical excellence than commercial clarity. If you want to learn how to build category narratives, earn executive and board-level trust, and drive growth for companies protecting the future, this is where you start.

The premise

You’ll work directly alongside

— inside real client engagements, real strategy conversations, and real market problems.

Nothing is simulated.

(Well, except the microsimulations.)

The pace is fast, the work is hard, and the growth is real.

What you’ll develop

Four capabilities, learned on live work.

What you bring

We can teach the craft. We can’t teach this.

Non-negotiable

Intellectual honesty and ambition.

Why this role exists

We’re not filling a seat. We’re building the bench.

Security and resilience companies can’t find marketing leaders who understand their world — there’s almost no bench of commercially-trained CMOs for this market.

It’s part expertise and part temperament. Classically-trained marketers want perfect plans and clean checklists — and that’s just not how the world works anymore. This market lives in continuous disruption, and the job is to help companies continuously adapt.

So we’re creating leaders built for exactly that — trained in a specific worldview, with Eudai’s methodology, network, and client exposure behind them.

Tell us why it’s you.

Skip the formal cover letter. A few honest paragraphs and a link to your work. Paula reads every application herself and replies to the ones that fit.

Read by Paula, not a recruiter.

We reply to genuine fits within a week.

One person at a time, deep and deliberate.

Got it. We read every application.

If there’s a fit, you’ll hear back within a week — from Paula.
